Question

If ABCD is a square, the measure of angle P C D is _____.

 

  1. 45°
  2. 27°
  3. 180°
  4. 63°

The correct answer is: 27°


    we are given that ABCD is a square and we need to find the measure of angle P C D
    In a square, the lengths of all sides are equal.
    So, AB = BC = CD = DA = 10 cm
    In ΔBAP and ΔCDP,
    AB = CD
    space angle A space equals space angle D space equals space 90 degree [∵Angles of a square are equal to 90°]
    AP = PD           [Given]
    So, ΔBAP ≌ ΔCDP
    We know that corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal.
    So, angle A B P space equals space angle P C D space equals space 27 degree

    Using the properties of square we find that the ∠PCD is 27°
